14.2.7 Removing clients after operation has started

After you have started operations with your quarantined system, the removal of clients because of asset disposal or other reasons can be performed in either of the following ways:

Organization of this subsection
(1) With automatic denial of network connection enabled
(2) With automatic denial of network connection disabled

(1) With automatic denial of network connection enabled

  1. In JP1/CSC - Manager setup, enable network connections to be denied automatically when a client is removed from the network.
    To automatically deny network connections when a client is removed, specify the following setting in the Client Security Control - Manager Setup dialog box:
    • In the Basic Settings page, under Asset deletion information, set the Automatic refusal of network connection attribute to Execute.
  2. Remove the client.
    The client is automatically denied connection to the network in the connection control list of JP1/CSC - Agent.
  3. In the Device List window of AIM, select the asset information of the client you want to remove, and set the device status to Erase.
    For details about how to set the device status to Erase, see the manual Job Management Partner 1/Asset Information Manager Administrator's Guide.
    Note that if the management server is configured using Asset Information Manager Subset Component of JP1/Software Distribution Manager, this step is unnecessary because the device status changes to Erase as soon as you remove the client.
  4. Use the data maintenance task to delete asset information with the Erase status.
    For details about data maintenance, see the manual Job Management Partner 1/Asset Information Manager Planning and Setup Guide.
  5. Execute the cscrdelete command.
    The network connection information, MAC address and IP address of the client you want to remove is deleted from the connection control list of JP1/CSC - Agent. For details about the cscrdelete command, see cscrdelete (deletes information about a specified client from the connection control list) in 15. Commands.

(2) With automatic denial of network connection disabled

  1. In JP1/CSC - Manager setup, prevent network connections from being denied automatically when a client is removed from the network.
    To prevent network connections from being denied automatically when a client is removed, specify the following setting in the Client Security Control - Manager Setup dialog box:
    • In the Basic Settings page, under Asset deletion information, set the Automatic refusal of network connection attribute to Do not execute.
  2. In the PC List window of the Client Security Management window, select the client you want to remove. Then, in Network connection, click the Refuse button.
    The client control list of JP1/CSC - Agent is updated to indicate that the client is to be denied connection to the network.
  3. Remove the client.
  4. In the Device List of AIM, select the asset information of the client you removed, and set the device status to Erase.
    For details about how to set the device status to Erase, see the manual Job Management Partner 1/Asset Information Manager Administrator's Guide.
    Note that if the management server is configured using Asset Information Manager Subset Component of JP1/Software Distribution Manager, this step is unnecessary because the device status changes to Erase as soon as you remove the client.
  5. Use the data maintenance task to delete asset information with the Erase status.
    For details about data maintenance, see the manual Job Management Partner 1/Asset Information Manager Planning and Setup Guide.
  6. Execute the cscrdelete command.
    The network connection information, MAC address and IP address of the client you want to remove is deleted from the connection control list of JP1/CSC - Agent. For details about the cscrdelete command, see cscrdelete (deletes information about a specified client from the connection control list) in 15. Commands.
